Henry Arnold passed away on Saturday, July 7, 2007. He was born in Santa Rosa, Ca. to Henry and Catherine Arnold. The family moved from Visalia to Fresno in 1957, and he has called Fresno his home ever since.

Like most of his friends he was drafted in February 1967, and spent one year in Vietnam. After his return he entered Fresno City College and his path to law enforcement began. Henry was hired by the Fresno Police Department in 1970, and had a very successful career until his retirement on February 9, 2005. He met and married Sue in 1986 and they have two sons, Christopher and Ryan, they were the loves of his life. Many years were spent on small vacations to Morro Bay, the cabin at Bass Lake and anywhere boat racing took them. Henry had many passions in life; he enjoyed golf and was a member at Fort Washington Country Club were he spent many days watching and playing golf with his sons. Henry had a sense for adventure, which allowed him to try hang gliding, water and snow skiing, but most of all his need for speed. Henry raced a flat bottom circle boat and passed that skill onto his sons Chris and Ryan. His grandparents, mother and father, aunt Wilma, and his brother Louis preceded Henry in death. Henry is survived by his wife Susan; sons, Christopher and Ryan of Fresno; sister, Catherine Pollastrini and her husband Larry of Clovis; sister, Betty Kunzmann and her husband Bob of Seattle, Wa.; many nieces, nephews and friends.
